Wine Details
AmericanWinery.com is pleased to provide you with Winery-Direct information.
Vintage
A cool spring gave way to a warm summer that helped develop complex flavors. September and October cooled off again with some light rains that tempered the sugar development while the flavors matured in the grapes. The result is a layered wine with tannins that marry nicely with zesty meat like steaks and foods with attitude.
Vineyard
100% Berghan Vineyard, Walla Walla, Washington – a distinct vineyard with flavors of ripe blackberry, cherries and smooth texture. Made with 95% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot.
